Hello, I recently received a medium sized smokey quartz as a gift. I am wondering where to place it in my home. Please advise. Thank you

Hi S,

Thank you for your inquiry. Crystals are great to give and receive, and Smokey Quartz is known for being protective and grounding. It is also great for transmuting electromagnetic frequencies that may impact us negatively, so there for a good choice to place on or near electronics such as computers and microwaves. Here is an article I wrote on Feng Shui and Crystals, you could also place the Smokey Quartz in the area of your home you feel would best benefit from it's energy:

I've since began to interpret the Bagua differently, using the directions in my home as a guide that corresponds with the respective areas of life. Using this method the area of your home facing North would be your career, East is family and physical health, South is fame, and West is children and creativity.

Disclaimer: I must share the standard disclaimer that I am not a doctor and cannot give out medical advice. Crystals for healing should be used as a complement to other therapies and not as a replacement for regular medical care. The information offered here is based on a combination of my own personal experiences and that of others on using crystals for healing. My hope is that you will let your own intuition guide your path in working with crystals as well.
